EVENT DETAILS

Seattle Breakfast Event Friday, April 30, 2010  7:00 - 8:30 am New location: Seattle Pacific University (Gwinn Commons) "Does Ethics Pay?  Does It Matter?" Some well-intentioned people think that ethics is somehow tainted if it is at all motivated by a personal or business interest.  For example, I shouldn’t be  honest with customers in order to get their repeat business --but “just because it’s right.”  I shouldn’t treat my employees kindly in order to get them to stick around and work harder --- but “just because it’s right.”  Interesting that the Bible never makes that distinction.
